Hard wire dash cam Need help!

Has anyone hard wire a dash cam using the front passenger fuse box? Just reading on what fuses I need to tap into. Need some help! If anyone knows which fuses to tap into I would greatly appreciate it! [North American/Canadian] car don’t know if that would make a difference but thanks in advance.

Why are you doing it this way? Far more straight forward solutions...

I used this guide and it works: https://g80.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh....php?t=1889381

I changed parking mode to only last one hour to hopefully protect the battery.

I could not figure out how to hide the rear camera wire behind the B pillar well enough so I just have a front camera. I could get it in the crack above the seatbelt trim, but it would not go all the way in and so it was visible. Didn't like it how it looked at all. Let me know if you figure out a way. I felt uneasy prying too hard with my trim tool.
